RAGTIME: THE MUSICAL
MARCH 14-30, 2025
Book by Terrence McNally
Music by Stephen Flaherty
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Based on the novel by E.L. Doctorow
Directed and Choreographed by Todd L. Underwood
At the dawn of a new century, everything is changing… and anything is possible. Set in the volatile melting pot of turn-of-the-century New York, three distinctly American tales are woven together – that of a stifled upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant, and a daring young Harlem musician – united by their courage, compassion and belief in the promise of the future. Winner of Tony Awards® for its music and its book, RAGTIME is filled with pageantry, emotion and hope, bursting onto the stage like no other musical before or since.

BEAUTIFUL: THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL
MAY 2-18, 2025
Music and Lyrics by Gerry Coffin, Carole King, Barry Mann, and Cynthia Weil
Book by Douglas McGrath
Before she was music superstar Carole King — she was Carole Klein, a spunky, young songwriter from Brooklyn who wrote hit songs for the biggest acts in music. BEAUTIFUL chronicles her rise as a songwriter, eventually finding her own unique voice with her ground-breaking 1971 album Tapestry. With unforgettable classic songs as “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “You’ve Got a Friend,” “One Fine Day,” “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling,” and “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow,” this Broadway, feel-good phenomenon is a story you’ll never forget.
This production contains some adult themes.
